This paper reviews recent progress in the study and understanding of extreme seasonal
events in the Amazon region, focusing on drought and floods. The review includes a history …

As the largest river basin on Earth, the Amazon is of major importance to the world's climate
and water resources. Over the past decades, advances in satellite‐based remote sensing …

This review surveys the basic theories, observational methods, satellite algorithms, and land
surface models for terrestrial evapotranspiration, E (or λE, ie, latent heat flux), including a …

Ongoing climate change poses significant threats to plant function and distribution.
Increased temperatures and altered precipitation regimes amplify drought frequency and …

In this paper, a hydrologic/hydrodynamic modeling of the Amazon River basin is presented
using the MGB‐IPH model with a validation using remotely sensed observations. Moreover …

Continental moisture recycling is a crucial process of the South American climate system. In
particular, evapotranspiration from the Amazon basin contributes substantially to …

We investigated the seasonal patterns of Amazonian forest photosynthetic activity, and the
effects thereon of variations in climate and land-use, by integrating data from a network of …

Abstract Study region Upper Xingu River Basin, southeastern Amazonia. Study focus This
study assessed the influence of land cover changes on evapotranspiration and streamflow …

Through vegetation‐atmosphere feedbacks, rainfall reductions as a result of Amazon
deforestation could reduce the resilience on the remaining forest to perturbations and …

As CO 2 concentration in the atmosphere rises, there is a need for improved physical
understanding of its impact on global plant transpiration. This knowledge gap poses a major …
